Chapter 538: Chapter 538: What Makes a Good Man

Zhu Qianying was taken aback for a moment. Boyfriend?

Did Mom have a boyfriend? Who? Uncle Dong, or someone else?

Zhu Qianying tilted her head slightly, her questioning gaze fixed on Yan.

Yan nodded, "Hmm, I saw Mr. Luo in the restaurant, the man who owns that special chain of catering stores, Luo Yifan. Do you know him?"

Zhu Qianying shook her head, "I don’t know him, but I’ve heard of him. This Mr. Luo was introduced to my mom by Aunt Tong. Mom said that they seem to have quite a lot in common."

Zhu Qianying vaguely remembered that Bai Shao had once mentioned that this Mr. Luo had patronized their restaurant once in the afternoon, but whether his visit was specifically to see her mom or just for the exchange of ideas, only the people involved would know.

"Mommy, grandma’s boyfriend is quite handsome! Of course, not as handsome as Grandpa in our family!"

The little boy’s eyes were sparkling as though that man really was his grandma’s boyfriend.

Zhu Qianying patted his head and stood up. She looked into his eyes and said, "Baby, don’t talk nonsense. He’s just a friend of grandma’s, not her boyfriend."

Zhu Qianying still remembered that her mother had personally admitted that she didn’t feel anything for this Mr. Luo Yifan.

So, Zhu Qianying wondered if the type of man her mother liked was someone like Uncle Dong, rugged and carefree.

Baby boy looked disappointed, uttered an "Oh..." and then, with a pout, swung his little hand and walked towards the bathroom.

Looking at the boy’s drooping head, Zhu Qianying couldn’t help but laugh, "Does he like Mr. Luo very much?"

Zhu Qianying pointed in the direction of the little boy and turned to ask Yan.

Yan drew her into his arms and they walked into the living room, "I guess so. That Mr. Luo really knows how to coax kids, besides, that staff member named Xiao Ya in the restaurant told him that Mr. Luo is the boss lady’s boyfriend, so he believed it."

Originally, when Bai Shao had mentioned Luo Yifan the last time, Zhu Qianying didn’t pay much attention. But now, after hearing what the little boy and Yan said, she began to have some thoughts.

"How well do you know this Mr. Luo Yifan?" Now, Zhu Qianying couldn’t help but want to know more about this Mr. Luo.

Her mother’s first half of her life was ruined because she met a bad man. In the second half of her life, Zhu Qianying hoped that her mom could find a good man who would treat her well and cherish her.

As for the looks, she felt that they weren’t the most important thing.

And the little boy, obviously, had been infatuated with Mr. Luo’s appearance.

"I know him, but we don’t have much business to do with each other. From the few contacts, he seems to be a quite charming man. Whether he’s a good man or not, I don’t know!"

Clearly, Yan saw through Zhu Qianying’s thoughts again.

However, Zhu Qianying felt fine with that. At least she didn’t have to bother explaining.

"Hmm, I think I’ll find out more from Ji Huan. Since Aunt Tong introduced him, Ji Huan should know more."

Yan nodded, "You can search his deeds online because he’s a successful businessman. But as for his private moral character, you should indeed ask Ji Huan."

Because she was concerned, after dinner, Zhu Qianying didn’t accompany Yan and the little boy for a dog walk as she did the previous two days. Instead, she picked up her iPad and typed "Luo Yifan" in the search bar.

After she hit Enter, a bunch of news and content related to him popped up.

The first one was the news of the opening of a new branch of "Fanxin Restaurant". There was also a picture of owner Luo Yifan cutting the ribbon.

From this picture, it could be seen that this man, though not young, was indeed handsome.

Of course, he couldn’t compare to extremely handsome men like Yan Bo or Ji Rui. If Yan Bo and Ji Rui could be rated a hundred, then Luo Yifan was at least an eighty-five.

From his appearance and image, he seemed to be pretty friendly. No wonder the little fellow liked him.

With a nice first impression, Zhu Qianying opened the biography and found out that he was more than ten years older than her mother.

But judging only from his looks, if anyone said he was just in his forties, people would definitely believe it.

The biography was full of his achievements. Looking closely, Zhu Qianying found that he was the son of the famous Luo family in R City, but because he had older brothers and his hobby wasn’t in the family business, he set up his own business at about thirty years old, opening the first "Fanxin Restaurant" in the capital city.

Afterward, over the course of more than twenty years, Fanxin Restaurants had opened one by one, until it reached today’s scale.

After getting a basic understanding of Luo Yifan, Zhu Qianying didn’t rush to ask Ji Huan anything.

After all, her mother and Luo Yifan didn’t have any definite relationship yet. And they shouldn’t just believe the words of the little boy.

If in the end mom and Luo Yifan were just business acquaintances who clicked, her asking around about Luo Yifan’s character and family background would seem very strange and awkward.

As for Luo Yifan, Zhu Qianying only searched for him online but didn’t mention it to anyone, including Lady Yan.

Because she wanted to confirm things with her mother first. After all, when it comes to matters of the heart, no one knows better than the parties involved.

That night, Chen Jing returned home as usual around nine o’clock.

Yan, who had been sent to coax the son, went to the study to work overtime after putting the little boy to bed.

Zhu Qianying guided a servant to make some sugar water in the kitchen. She let the servant take it to Mr. and Mrs. Yan, while she herself picked up the tray and ascended the stairs.

After Chen Jing came out of the shower, she saw her daughter sitting on the sofa, and on the coffee table in front of the sofa were two bowls of sugar water.

"Ying’er, your hand still isn’t fully recovered, why are you cooking sugar water again?"

Chen Jing was slightly angry, this girl, why couldn’t she take better care of herself?

"Mom, I didn’t make it, I was just guiding them!"

At that, Chen Jing’s face softened a bit, and she walked over and sat down beside her.

"What’s wrong? Did you have a fight with Yan?"

Nobody could change the way this mother and daughter referred to Yan, even after Lady Yan had reminded them many times.

Yan didn’t take their form of address seriously. Besides, in private, Zhu Qianying had many nicknames for him, such as ’Big Treasure’ and ’Darling’. So, Yan no longer tussled with the mother and daughter about what they called him.

Zhu Qianying looked at her mom strangely, "Mom, I’m getting along just fine with him. Where are all these fights coming from?"

Zhu Qianying felt that probably because she and Yan had been separated for five years previously, both she and he cherished their time together now. Thus, occurrences like fights were not likely to happen between them for the time being.
